The dems have Joe Biden, the GOP has Michael Steele. I think BO wishes he had chosen Hillary for the job. This guy would be spending his time in Waziristan if he were my veep. "Someone want to shoot him? Anyone? Please, help a brother out. C'mon guys, please, I'll pay for the bullet". ;D FQ13

For as grating as she is Hillary isn't stupid. She knew that if she accepted the VP appointment she'd be DONE. In 2012 she'd have to stay as VP instead of a Presidential canidate. Obummer will probably be voted out in 12, Slick Willy being the only Dem that has been elected for a second term since FDR. Once he's gone, in 2016 she can run for Pres and say "Look BHO was a failure and I'm better than the current President," whoever that might be. If she'd been VP in 2016, if they made it that far, everyone would be so in the dumps that even Mass would vote Republican, oh wait that's already happening!

And then I start to cry... until I realize that if Joe takes a dirt nap, Nancy's in charge... And then I get out the Scotch. :'( :'( :'(
Thus proving that neither W nor BO are as dumb as people think. They both chose a veep that scared the crap out people (though for different reasons) and had about the most useless Speakers on record as the second option. Hell, they didn't need the secret service. All BO would have to do is ask the gun toting assasin, "You do realze that if you pull that trigger Biden will be President right"? ;D FQ13

He's a shining example that America is the land of opportunity.
Where else can a full-blown retard become vice president of the United States?
